To force existing installations of Opera to use the options set by your system: If the ttf-ms-fonts AUR package has been installed before running Opera for the first time, Opera will use those fonts by default, regardless of what is specified by local GTK options, GNOME or KDE font management. Appropriate buttons can be found by activating the 'Main' toolbar or by dragging and dropping the buttons anywhere desired, found in Menu > Appearance > Buttons > Browser.įonts can be configured under Settings > Preferences. Opera has native support for tab cascading and tiling mode. The title bar can be hidden by right-clicking on the tab bar, then unchecking 'Show Border'.

GTK A nice GTK skin that uses the Tango icon theme can be found here. KDE To make Opera use KDE icons, you can install a theme such as this one. Qt To make the menus look integrated with Qt, install your preferred Qt theme and apply it by using qtconfig. using the -pd command-line flag to tell Opera where to store its profile data:Īlthough Opera is cross-platform, it can be made to integrate very well into various Linux desktop environments.using Profile-sync-daemon, that automatically detects and relocates the Opera profile to tmpfs.There are currently two ways of doing this: Another benefit is a reduction in disk read and write operations, of which SSDs benefit the most.

Relocate the browser profile to a tmpfs filesystem, including /tmp for improvements in application response as the entire profile is now stored in RAM.

To more easily find these options just write the respective path (without spaces) in the address bar, for example opera:config#UserPrefs|ShowTrayIcon or use the built-in search.

Web Server: uncheck Enable under opera:config#Web Server.

Multimedia: unckeck desired options under opera:config#Multimedia.

Geolocation: uncheck Enable geolocation under opera:config#Geolocation.

BitTorrent: uncheck Enable under opera:config#BitTorrent.

Systray Icon: uncheck Show Tray Icon under opera:config#UserPrefs.

One of the keys to maximizing application performance is to disable undesired features and services through the native opera:config Preferences Editor. Install Adblock support using the opera-adblock-complete AUR package.Īlthough Opera is fast on modern hardware, it can be made even faster. Tip: Opera also has a built-in ad blocker which can be enabled in Settings.
